You may want to check with your TA. She probably has them already.

Glad to hear Kirstin in healing. As she is young, she will probably heal well and quickly. My former boss had the same thing done years ago, she claimed that her torn miniscus was a sports injury, but I happen to know that she did it bumper bowling

Hey everyone,

Back from a week at the Jersey shore. Weather made it memorable. We had five nights of late afternoon/early evening thunderstorms. Never had that happen before. It really hurts for us because we like to go surfing in the late afternoon.

The water was nice and warm on the first day but after the first set of thunderstorms the water cooled down and we were wearing wet suits/rash guards.

The surf was rough all week - great for surfing/boogie boarding but made it extremely hard to get out to the breakers. It was exhausting. It wasn't dangerous or anything like that but the waves were constantly pounding on you.

But its got us excited for the cruise. I'm working on my door signs while doing all the vacation laundry.

One thing I'd like to suggest we all do is to make a last post right before you leave announcing that you are leaving and will meet on the ship. Then the last family that posts "turns out the light". We did this on my 2006 and it was myself and one other family that "turned out the light".

I think that is a great idea. I'm looking forward to my final post on the 15th, so I doubt I will be turning off any lights

I've been away for a while so I have been very quiet. Now that I am home I am anxious to start packing. I still need to get my FE gifts. Lots to think about.
Best wishes to everyone who is heading off to WDW early.

I agree, but when do we post our goodbye? We're leaving for Orlando on the 14th but, between my iPhone and hotel connectivity, I'll probably be posting even after we board...

Welcome to the teens! According to my countdown clock, we are 19 days from sailing!

MrR · 08-03-2009, 09:27 AM

LOL, never thought of that. Hmmmm. Well, do a "temporary" goodbye when you leave.

Ah the downside of 24/7 electronic communication. Are we truly ever on vacation anymore?

Aurora's Mommy · 08-04-2009, 07:51 AM

Our documents arrived yesterday
